Rating: Summary: If you want porn... Review: This is NOT PORN, this is NOT EVEN 90's SEX ON PUBLIC TV. This is a "historic" piece, much as the greek naked statues.I saw it a couple of years ago, I was already over 25, and had problem understanding why it was such a controversial film. Perhaps it's because the story rings bells of truth and reality. Seems more than real. So pretend-prudish ones have to be shocked! It's definitly a film for grown-ups, but it's very soft, very mild, and definitly a nice turn-on for a woman! Warm recommandations, except maybe for my own mother! ;-)
Rating: Summary: Still an enjoyable one Review: This is the first of the three original Emmanuelle movies, the ones starring Sylvia Kristel. There were lots of imitators, most ranging from bad to worse and beyond. At the time of the first Emmanuelle, though none of that had yet happened - please hold that happy thought. Perhaps those three weren't high art, but they're generally good entertainment for adults.
Back in the 70s, this was a groundbreaking movie. It was openly erotic, and openly meant for the general public. I'll leave the social commentary to others. For me, it's just a beautiful movie. It's set in beautiful tropical locations. It stars beautiful actresses, back before implants were part of the uniform. Most of all, it shows beautiful (if artificial) exchanges of physical affection between Emmanuelle and just about everyone, man and woman.
Still, there were a few things about this movie that I didn't care for. It usually depicts Emmanuelle as a passive figure, to be led and acted upon. I prefer the stronger character in the sequel. Later parts of the movie depict coercion, something I really don't care for. The haughty poseur at the end was annoying, but distantly true to the book. Still, book's fans shouldn't get their hopes up. This movie is its own creature, and pleasant enough if taken on its own terms.

Rating: Summary: Exceptional Sensual and Seductive Review: This was an exceptional quality film made in the free love and mutual understanding mode of thought. It has very sensual scenes of men with women and women with women that are presented in an alluring way. Not X rated, it leaves some of the visual imaging to the imagination of the viewer while giving the eyes plenty to feast on. An oriental setting adds depth to the story as well, as we view the characters through the setting in which they are placed. And there is the blonde. The blonde is, well, fantastic. All the ladies and even the men are nice looking, but the blonde...
Rating: Summary: An erotic adventure into the lucidity of the soul. Review: What stands out first and foremost in this '70s sexsploitation flick is the natural beauty of all the female leads, particularly Sylvia Krystal. Although hardcore porn fans may not find the scenes revealing enough, I feel there is a lot to be said about leaving something to the imagination. I would recommend skipping through the rape scenes which seem oddly out of place. This movie can by no means be taken seriously, but if you enjoy unaugmented women who are relatively competent actresses, you'll love the sexual aristeia of Emmanuelle.
Rating: Summary: lousy Review: yes,lousy.to call this movie erotic is a joke.plot is pretty good.main idea is simple - its good to be a king.in plain English it means if you have money you do whatever you want,in this case have fun.
